FAQs
If you would like to find out more or have any questions about the GSTIP which are not covered, including details on eligibility, tax, calculation or payment, please speak to your local contact.
If you are eligible, you’ll be incentivised on VBU growth as well as overall local market performance.
You will have two parts to your variable pay, each of which will represent half of your target bonus:
- The SPARK GSTIP, which is focused on VBU growth.
- The GSTIP, which is comprised of 70% Local Market and 30% Group performance.
- 50% of your bonus opportunity will have local market Vodafone Business performance measures (15% Adjusted Service Revenue, 15% B&C Products and 20% Contribution Margin).
- 50% will be based on the local market GSTIP achievement, which is split between local market and Group performance (70% local market: 14% Adjusted Service Revenue, 14% Adjusted EBIT, 14% Adjusted Free Cash Flow, 7% Revenue Market Share, 14% NPS and 7% Churn 30% Group: 6% Adjusted Service Revenue, 6% Adjusted EBIT, 6% Adjusted Free Cash Flow, 3% Revenue Market Share, 6% NPS and 3% Churn).
To ensure the right level of collective focus on driving Vodafone Business growth, individuals reporting into a local VBU Director, local VBPS and VBTS teams will be incentivised through the SPARK GSTIP. This means that all bonus eligible employees in Vodafone Business and VBPS and VBTS (except for Italy and Vodacom) will be included. Employees on commission or local bonus schemes remain on their current schemes. The CEO will also have part of their short-term incentive aligned to this framework.

Total IoT + Total Cloud and Security + SDWAN Total + VB Unity.
The other beyond connectivity products which are part of Group P&S portfolio (DLM/RED/IPVPN in UK/Ethernet/Internet) or Local One Net Solutions are not going to be included under the FY25 target because they are not reported in the Group systems and therefore cannot be tracked.
Group Vodafone Business will remain on the Vodafone Business GSTIP framework.
Support functions will remain on local GSTIP.
The short-term incentive remains a discretionary cash bonus plan designed to drive exceptional performance across Vodafone and recognise and reward individual impact during the year.
Local eligibility guidelines remain unchanged and minimum performance standards continue to apply, in line with Grow My Impact.
